Asian Studies Final Project Self-Evaluation

1. What did you contribute specifically to your project?
2. How successful do you think you conveyed your research to your audience?
3. What would have made your presentation more successful?: If I researched about more than two musicians for each country, it would have been better for people to understand the indie musics of each country. However, I wanted to explain each band specifically, so choosing only two was the best choice.
4. How successful do you think your technology-based materials were in conveying your research?
5. What would have made your technology-based materials more successful?
6. What did you learn from this project? Submit any other comments after this question.
